OUR STORY

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL

In 1916, Polish immigrant Nathan Handwerker started a nickel hot dog stand on Coney
Island with a $300 loan from two friends and his wife’s secret spice recipe. Today, Nathan's is
the most famous hot dog in the world, with restaurants across the globe, products in every supermarket
in America and millions of fans. And yes, the first Coney Island store is still there.
